We wanted to keep together as long as weĬould. World: a lot of wagons chained together-and the Professor and Aunt 'So we got into the train-that's kind of thing people travel in in our Peter thinks that Susan didn't come with them because she's no longer a friend of Narnia and didn't come on the train + through the portal with them, not because she's still alive. At the time the discussion of Susan occurs, everyone-including the reader-thinks they simply were pulled through another portal to Narnia, right before, during, or instead of the crash. Peter, Edmund, Lucy and the rest don't know they're dead until the very end of The Last Battle. (Please note: I'm not a expert in Christian/Lewis in particular's theology this is my impression primarily from the text of the book.) Lewis's comments on her being in a particularly silly phase of life? Or was Peter merely unaware of Susan's current mental state when he stated that she's no longer a friend of Narnia (given that he couldn't exactly visit earth to see how she was handling the whole thing)? But, if that's the case, how do we account for C. Why did she apparently persist in that even after the death of all of her siblings on the same day? Why didn't that make her reconsider, and why doesn't the book note her reaction to the event? This seems like a highly abnormal reaction to that kind of a personal tragedy at a minimum. The fact that the book refers to that in the present tense implies that Susan still felt that way (even after the train crash). The book merely mentions that she was no longer a friend of Narnia, and that she was in a particularly silly phase of life where she only cared about parties.

In The Last Battle, several of Susan's close relatives (including all of her siblings) were killed on the same day in a train crash.
